Begonias in the Garden, NZ.

This page is aimed at giving you, the gardener an idea of how and where begonias of various types/species can be grown in a garden situation. Not all of us have shade/greenhouses or even hothouses for those in the cooler areas.

For those looking for more detailed information on Begonia species have a look at Mark Tebbitt’s book “Begonias; Cultivation, Identification and Natural History”. Published by Timber Press 2005, it has an amazing range of begonias from around the world.

We hope you can draw some inspiration towards growing begonia species from here.
